The Tamy wings from Aji Tram Restaurant and Bar

What, dear reader, was the greatest week of your life?

Think back on that moment. Treasure its beautiful memory. Then THROW IT IN THE TRASH, because the Portland Mercuryโ€™s Wing Week is about to make every other week youโ€™ve ever experienced look like GARBAGE.

Thatโ€™s right: From NOWย to Sunday, October 6, the Portland Mercuryโ€™s Wing Week returnsโ€”with creative, one-of-a-kind chicken wings available at 70 Portland locations! Even better? Each order of six delicious wings will only cost you a mere $8! Yes, it will be amazingโ€”because the Mercury and our Wing Week partners at Jim Beam and the Rose City Rollers wouldnโ€™t have it any other way!

Check out pics and descriptions of this yearโ€™s delectable wings right hereโ€”and once you stop drooling, keep a few things in mind:

TIP, AND TIP WELL! Wing Weekโ€™s a ton of funโ€”and making it happen takes a ton of work! Make sure everyone behind Wing Weekโ€”everyone working on the floor, in the kitchen, and behind the barโ€”knows how much you appreciate them. Wing Week couldnโ€™t happen without โ€™em!

WINGS… AND MORE! As subtly implied by the name โ€œWing Week,โ€ wings ARE the focus of Wing Week. BUT! Each Wing Week location also has an amazing array of sides and drinks that are a perfect match for their wings! Donโ€™t miss out!

HAVE FUN! This is Portlandโ€™s biggest Wing Week everโ€”and itโ€™s almost guaranteed that despite everyoneโ€™s best efforts, thereโ€™ll be lines, sell-outs, and more. So if one location is too crowded? Just come back another day, and in the meantime, hit another Wing Week location!

#MERCURYWINGWEEK The Mercuryโ€™s got you covered with Wing Week updates, reviews, and tips on Facebook, as well as Twitter,ย and Instagram (just search the #mercurywingweek hashtag for loads of up-to-the-second info, and don’t forget to tag yourself enjoying those… mmmm… wings). And on the WING WEEK homepage, youโ€™ll find useful stuff like a handy map of all WING WEEK locations, which also makes for a great tattoo.
